Abstract:Detection of left ventricle (LV) myocardial dysfunction after doxorubicin-based chemotherapy is investigated by determining myocardial stiffness, which is a potential clinical biomarker for the monitoring of heart failure (HF). The combination of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and the finite element method (FEM) was used to estimate anisotropic elastic stiffness in the LV. The myocardium also has a complex geometry with nonlinear hyperelastic properties leading to large deformation. Within the propos… Show more
